Radical prostatectomy removes the cancer in one go. Luckily its hadn't spread and I was fit enough for this procedure (69). However, although I had no symptoms I was unable to get a PSA test due to Covid (and I had no symptoms). I had to pretend to a new nurse at my GP surgery that I was having regular PSA tests, which she then gave me and it came back positive in a few days.
